Allowing e-scooters provided through share companies will ensure the trial can be carefully controlled and monitored.
Shared e-scooters are speed limited so they cannot exceed the speed limits in the trial area. Shared e-scooters can be geofenced so they will not operate outside the approved trial areas.
It will also ensure we are able to get the most accurate data about how the e-scooters are used and how safe they are, to assist with evaluating the future of e-scooters in NSW.
